Abstract

Recently, the region around the Baltic Sea has experienced stringent intergovernmental agreements and actions to regulate water resources among the Baltic countries. The region has also been influenced by various industrial, agricultural, and human activities, as well as several anthropogenic and natural inputs. In this context, multiple researchers have focused their work on understanding the water status and management among the Baltic Sea countries. The aim of this chapter is to represent a summary of the recent number of documents, states, and funding sponsors that contributed to the publications of “Water status in Baltic Sea countries”. This survey is retrieved from the Scopus and Web of Science databases from 2001 to 2019. Further, the chapter gives an overview of the water status and standards of some Baltic Sea countries that control the environmental features within the region. The essential suggestions and findings are summarized in the recommendations and conclusions sections.
